The Bitcoin Foundation controls the Bitcoin source code and has placed itself as the defacto decider in all things concerning the Bitcoin source code, therefore all things blockchain, all things the Bitcoin network, all things Bitcoin.

Historically, Foundations have awesome public agendas, but internally they are often clandestine and greed and ideologically based ... hidden agenda driven, and the people they allow through their turnstyles to "serve" are all the same in that they agree with the end game  goals of the Foundation.

Is there more to know?

We may never know.

What we DO know is that The Bitcoin Foundation goes against Satoshi's dream of no-trust-needed and complete decentralization, because TBF controls Bitcoin and its source, and I believe it can easily be proven in a court of law.


Exactly.

In addition to that - even assuming that the TBF would live up to the highest moral standards, it easily serves as a gateway for governmental control. By publishing their names and forming an official body in the US - a country which uses highly questionable methods to preserve reason of state - they can easily be forced to implement anything.

Satoshi had a reason to stay anonymous. When it comes to preservation of power, most governments tend to forget human rights or what's written in their very own constitution.
